The missing dead call to Violet. They want to be found.
Violet can sense the echoes of those who've been murdered--and
the matching imprint that clings to their killers. Her
best-friend-turned-boyfriend, Jay, is the only one outside of her
family who knows of her morbid ability. But when Violet discovers
the body of a missing boy, she draws the attention of the FBI.
As Violet dodges their questions, she is pulled into an
investigation that will endanger more than just her secret. For
without even meaning to, Violet has stumbled upon a dark truth--and
a desperate killer.
